The nonstructural protein 2C is a AAA+ helicase and plays a key role in enterovirus replication. Drug repurposing screens identified 2C-targeting compounds such as fluoxetine and dibucaine, but how they inhibit 2C is unknown. Here, we present a crystal structure of the soluble and monomeric fragment of coxsackievirus B3 2C protein in complex with ()-fluoxetine (SFX), revealing an allosteric binding site. To study the functional consequences of SFX binding, we engineered an adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase)–competent, hexameric 2C protein. Using this system, we show that SFX, dibucaine, HBB [2-(α-hydroxybenzyl)-benzimidazole], and guanidine hydrochloride inhibit 2C ATPase activity. Moreover, cryo–electron microscopy analysis demonstrated that SFX and dibucaine lock 2C in a defined hexameric state, rationalizing their mode of inhibition. Collectively, these results provide important insights into 2C inhibition and a robust engineering strategy for structural, functional, and drug-screening analysis of 2C proteins.
